One that makes hell breaks loose

I was having a good night sleep after an insomnia on Monday. Tuesday morning... before the cockerel even makes it's wake up call, I was startled by a loud crack at the door of my hostel room. My mind was thinking "Oh God, please... please it's not him... please..." BANG! *click* "Oh boy..." I stretched reluctantly, hoping to give him the sign that I was sleeping soundly... UNTIL U WOKE ME!!!! Damn you! But whatever... I continued my slumber... but not for long, until he started unloading. Then something else came to my mind "The Floor!" OK, hold your horses, "What floor?" you might be thinking.

The story goes like this, in the first semester, before the two idiots came, I cleaned and mop the ENTIRE ROOM myself. Then I went back home during the weekends. To my horror, the moment I step foot back into my room, shoes and slippers where all over the place! Dang! Fine... Then I shall also step in with shoe. But not for long. This time, hehe, I mopped the floor and told my senior room mate (The Other was not here) that I will be mopping the floor and please be bear footed when enter the room.

Ok, old grandma's story over. So I woke up reluctantly from my slumber, pull away my eye patch... oh the shock, shoes on floor. So I told him to leave his shoe behind when entering the room. If he wants to bring in his shoes he can place it under the bed. "OK" was the answer I get, but what happened? HAH!!!! He ignored me! Fish you! Ergh!!! What ever... He started unloading everything. All his belongings that he did not take back to his own country was left behind under the bed. And so, he pulled out his bed sheet and blanket... Guess what? IT STANK THE ENTIRE ROOM! My room mate and I quickly ran out not even saying a word! He went to shower, and I went to brush my teeth.

Oh GOD THE SMELL WAS HORRENDOUS!!!! IT WAS SO FOUL THAT EVEN VAMPIRES WILL RUN!! the moment I reached back my room, I told myself "please let this be a nightmare, I want to go back to the way it was a day ago." *click* I opened the door, the stench gushed out from the very moment the door stood a jar. Tears filled my eyes... thinking "How can this be?"

Oh, the scene was horrible. Even now my towel smells of it... GAG! *sigh* I shall write this down of my most horrible experience ever in Uni. He return to the very room he was staying. He pulled out a plastic bag filled with his bed sheet and blanket. It was the same one he used last semester. He sweats and he never washes it. Great! And now it has been under the bed for 1 month plus, untouched. The moment he pulled out, imagine the smell that gushed out... think of it as a rubbish dump site, sourish, sweaty smell from an obese man who has not showered for 1 month. Hmm... Lovely isn't it? NO! OF COURSE NOT!

So, after my class at 1pm, I reluctantly return to my room. Talking about change of luck! This time there was no electricity! My college was undergoing maintenance. And so when I opened the door, seeing him sleeping to soundly on THAT BEDSHEET WITH THE BLANKET!!!! EEEEEEWWWWWWWW!!!!!

He woke up after that, and so I pretended to tell him that the place smells really awful. My mandarin was terrible and his accent was so heavy... get the picture of awkwardness? Right. And so he said it was his pile of unwashed clothes since LAST SEMESTER. Then he left for shower. No electricity remember? So I opened the room, it still smelled so bad the moment I sat at my desk I could still smell it. Gagged... Ok, this is really bad. I left the room immediately. Even from outside I could still smell the foul odor. I called my mom to ask her for her opinion. She was so kind to wash his things for my sake... Hah! Forget it, I will ask him to wash or send it to the dobi.

Well, he came back, and I have to be really frank because its really that bad. I asked him to wash his bed sheet and blanket. Great, he agreed, BUT HE DID NOT WASH IT PROPERLY!!!! As to why? I don't know. *sigh* He washed it and hanged it out to dry. The weather was promising, sunny and windy, perfect environment to dry things up. He had to leave to get some things and asked for my help to collect it if it were to rain. And so I blindly agreed.

I had class at 5pm, and so I left thinking it won't rain. Ok, how stupid of me, it's raining season! Why didn't I collect it before I left???? After class and attending an AIESEC talk, I went back to my room at 10pm. Before that, seeing water pools on the road, I knew it rained quite heavily. *sigh* Oh great, there's sure to be drama again. True enough, the second I opened the door, my hanging placed was covered with his stinking blanket. Oh yes, MY PLACE WITH HIS FILTHY THINGS! Argh! And he said that he wanted to hang there to dry. He left in a jiffy. OK!!! This is way "better" than I imagined. I just took his blanket and left for the pantry, hanged his thing there and went for my meeting. After the entire meeting, I went back to my room. He entered just a few minutes later. I had to tell him the truth. Oh, I was so desperate to get his things washed at the cleaners that I had to lie that his things were covered in fungus. Well, seeing brown patches on his sheets and all, I had to come up with something, right?

*sigh* Well, I have to be cruel in order to be kind. And what makes me more guilty is that he even gave me a packet of tea he got from his place. According to him, it cost RM35 for that one small packet. Wow... right... so how? What should I do? Continue cleaning the room will be a must no matter what the cost is. This time I will not compromise dirty and smelling environment and I will eradicate all the awful things in my room.

How Kiasu am I?

Leave me be, I just want to rent out my frustrations here. Please leave at once. Thank you.



Why are you here?




Why are you still reading this???



Stop continuing! I mean it!




HEY! STOP READING!!!





Fine! You have been warned. Here I will start to complain and talk nonsense that WILL IRRITATE YOU!!!




BEWARE! This is the last chance for you to SHUT it!




Suit yourself.... From here you will know how kiasu I am.



Previously, I had told myself that I must obtain 4.0 no matter what the consequences are, unfortunately, I slacked big-time. I screwed up my entire semester 1, took everything for granted, because I took it too lightly. *sigh* How stupid of me to listen to people... saying "Oh, STPM graduate? Simple life lar, sap sap sui... all revision only" FINE!!! End up... ta-da, my result, target... NOT ACHIEVED! YOU IDIOT!

That's not all, when I got to know my good friend in the same course as me got 4.0, I was delighted... but there is this other part of me... this evil part of me, the part I always suppress deep within me... felt jealous. But what the heck right? I mean come on!!! Top 10 STPM student! You're joking if she can't get 4.0.

Oh...ironically this "side" of me hunger for more jealousy... then it started to hunt for "victims". "Ei, how much is your pointer ar?""Ei, how much you get for sem 1 ar?" Posing all this questions starts to fill this beast of mine. Answers "3.87 and below" was not satisfying. "I" wanted more... stalked and hunt... then, more and more people with "3.87 and above" appeared. "I got 3.9+" or "Mine slightly higher than yours... 3.9". Verbally I automatically congrats then, but the filthy beast within me was now feeding on me. "Oh, how I wished I had gotten better marks than you, then I can see that ugly sour face of yours! Eat that you jerk!"

With all this emotion cramped in!!! SHIT! Hah! Then the feeling of regret starts to set in. Firstly, why the hell am I in UM in the very first place? Why the hell didn't I go to NUS? Everything is so much better there: education, accommodation, transportation, the people there are more kiasu than me will inspire me to do better.
Secondly, why didn't I study hard in the very first place when all I wanted to was get the chance to change to pharmacy or medicine? See, now you let the people around you look down upon you. Brag la! Brag some more! Brag~~~ Continue bragging and this is what you get, HUMILIATION!!! It's like dirt splat on your damn face!!! Thirdly, the hope of changing to pharmacy or medicine has dropped so low... HAH! that you don't even want to send in the letter of appeal. ARGH!!! *BITE LIPS SO HARD* SEND ONLY LA!!!!

Oh, how I want to shed some tears like a normal human with feelings does, but why can't I? Is tears that expensive to shed? Ironically I still manage to put on a smiling face and congrats people full-heartedly? Was I being genuine? I even doubt myself at times. Hah! talking about self-conflict...

*sigh* what the heck... forget it... if i can't get into the course i want... then biochem it shall be. who knows? later in life there are full of unexpected things that might happen right? maybe biochem isn't such a bad course after all... hopefully... maybe...

now that whats done is done... so just continue right? life continues on and on regardless of what happens. *deep breaths* *exhale loudly*

Right on! Let's continue and hope for the best! This time, Semester 2, all the memory work is needed, SO NO SLACKING! ALL RIGHT? YOSH!!!!

A new beginning.

A fresh start, a new beginning, a new semester.

Everyone has left for their respective uni. That rule also applies on me. But before I return, I would like to, again, state down all the wonderful things that happened during this holiday.

My best experience was going to the pub. Hah, my very first Mojito. It was nice, the sweet and sour lime with a tinge of mint, the alcohol, can't even taste it. A few weeks later, I went to the very same pub again, Republic was the name. This time, I ordered a pint of Heineken. Nice...

Haha, hate to say this, but I find that this holiday, instead of exercising, we actually went out to eat more! We went to IKEA, 1U, Sunway, Puchong and many more places to indulge in various food. Haha, I gain extra pounds already... *pinching my flabby tummy. OK! New sem resolve! Walk everyday to Faculty! Haha, provided not raining.

Ah, fantastic movies were released in the cinema non-stop during this festive season (Christmas). Avatar, two thumbs up; Alvin, funny but not as good as the first, but still funny; Princess & the Frog, typical Disney cartoon, but I find it not as good as the classical Disney cartoons. Wow, come to think of it, there are more but we didn't watch. Haha... the entertainment we had...

Christmas was very fun indeed. My family and I went for a day out to the beach. Morib and Carey Island was fun. Especially Carey Island. Seeing the diverse sea creature available there was fun. Unfortunately it was raining and drizzling. *sigh* Hopefully the next time I go will have a much better weather.

Well, I got to say, I had the best event planner, thanks to Tai Kor Ying Wai. Haha. He planned most of the events with great success. Without him, I don't think I would have enjoyed yet another holiday.

Well, taking a deep breath, I shall now pen off. The start of another semester is just tomorrow. I will return to the life I used to hate so much... but why hate? Hated the room, hated the food, hated everything... my, how miserable am I... So this time, I shall learn to embrace it. Ok, cheer for me. XP Just joking. Haha.

Cheerios!

A wonderful and memorable evening

I will make this in a sort of a diary way so I can express myself better.

3rd Dec 2009

Dear Diary,
Today I had a surprise, a surprise which I have never expected in my life. I was initially getting really impatient when Bryan haven't reached my place when it's 7pm already. I finished watching a television drama and was pacing up and down my living room. Constantly irritating my sister by hopping on and off the computer. Finally my streak is over. He came 5 minutes after I called him. When I reached her place... OH MY THE LORD!!! Sadistic ladies to the attack..... I shall leave the rest to your imagination.

When I reached at Pek Yee's place, we feast the food prepared by everyone. Pizzas, bee hoon, eggs, and my mother's vinegar trotter, then came KFC, fried rice and so many other scrumptious food for the belly. Me, being glutton, will not stop until the food level have reached the top of the throat. "Haha" my mind thought, "this is great, I get to eat everyone's cooking".

Sigh, what a meal. My belly was bloated and we started to chat to the top of our voices. Suddenly, the lights got dimmer... hmmm... wonder why? Then Pek Yee just offed the lights... O.o Weird? Everyone clapped and sang birthday song... Weirder... Joan was standing beside me and i was blindly singing along when I felt something was wrong... Why is everyone LOOKING at me? "Joan, whose birthday is..." "YOU!!!" ............................... GASP!!!! WHY THE HELL IS EVERYONE POINTING AT ME???!!! "NO! THERE MUST BE A MISTAKE! MINE IS NOT TILL NEXT WEEK! NO, NO, NO!!!"
Ok, I was really shocked... there was this two candles sticking out of the chocolate cake (apparently Shao Li chose it, it's called Chocolate Moist Cake, and apparently its not the normal soft cake... you will know why). The next thing I knew (I dunno what was going on exactly, my mind was thinking "This is not logic! Not rational!" at that time) I was standing in front of the cake. Friends asked me to make a wish and say this is my early Birthday. My mind was racing with thoughts as it was such a big surprise. I clasp my hands together, wishing... wishing... wishing... (not gonna tell) *blow* out the candles go. Then, Wai Hou and the gang asked my to play a game... pull the candles out with... my mouth? Ok, that didn't sound right... Oh, and to add the challenge, he pressed the candle so deep in... Ok... That's... interesting. Hehe, someone... tried(but failed miserably) to smash my face with the cake. Hmph... who did it anyway? I wonder... Anyway, I drew my head back up... laughing... "This is a joke" my mind thought. FINED! I shall be sporting to pull it out! the moment i pull the second one out, my head was pressed so hard on the cake. Amazingly, the only visible marking on the cake... WAS MY NOSE PRINT! And guess what? I had to take the entire quarter piece (the one with my nose print) and gobble it in... 15 MINUTES!!! OMG!!!

The horror!!! The pain!!! The Agony!!! Oh, the drama... ironically, I just swallowed an entire cow before eating that one small quarter piece of cake. Let's see, the food level in me is at the very tip of the esophagus and I had to gobble in a quarter cake within 15 minutes or I'll have to face punishment which is even more horrible, more food to shove in... Ok... But I can't take it anymore... *Tears sparkle* Argh, begone with it. Shoved in slowly, munching... munching... And someone was there recording the entire scene. SH!T!!!!!! Oh, again, ironically the best give is yet to come, how true is it I am not sure, but they said it will be in YOUTUBE! Argh! Again! BE SPORTING! Come to think of it, when we grow up, all this will be a reminiscent. Oh, I swear I will not touch cakes for the next 1 month or so... *gag*

Then comes the game part. Wee, that's gonna be real... PAIN IN THE ASS! Hahaha, very dramatic? I know. You know why? Let's see, the loser gets to eat one big chunk of food! Wee, more shoving. ^.^v LUCKILY........ I TAK KENA!!! HAHAHA. Oh, the irony, I warned them not to eat to full... guess what, they ate too. Haha! Let us suffer my brothers, thy shall feel each others pain and suffering... NOT!!! Overall, the game was fun... Right? Right? All those in favor(those who didn't lose) say YES! XP

Not knowing the time flies by so fast... It was midnight. People started to leave one by one... until just the few of us GUYS left. After cleaning up and packing up, we bid adieu, and left, all of our hearts contented, fill with joy and laughter, memories only sweetness glued... if not fused with our brains, not to mention belly "imploded".

Lastly I would love to give my deepest gratitude to all those to make this event so happening, although it's not my real birthday. And frankly, this is my very first birthday celebrated with friends. Especially Pek Yee, Pek Khee and Pek Kuan and also her parents, thank you. Oh yes, and to everyone, the donation was most generous and also the lovely card... Erm... I mean the C-thingy. XD

Hope to see you guys soon enough for another round of wacky adventure.
